At the very end of September 2014, the lads at Bainbridge took in two extremely tiny (like 3-weeks-old-tiny) kittens that were found as part of a litter of four in a coworkers back yard. As a cat-curious person confronted with the two cutest things ever, not taking the two of them in was out of the question and I quickly turned into an overly-obsessive cat dad (or roommate, depending on how you look at it) to Meagan and Ashe. After a rough start of malnourishment, worms, and fleas, the two ladies healed right up and became the center of my life-happiness.

This post is going to be a continuously expanding scroll through my cats' lives, so uh, be sure to check back every once in a while as they grow up.

Hadn't ever even seen cats this small before, let alone held two in my hands.

Teacup of milk for scale.

Separation anxiety for those first few months (and still kinda, tbh). Meagan tried breaking into the bathroom as I was about to hop in for a shower.

Uncle Jake on the left. To quote his words, which are infinitely better than my words, "...the occupancy of two small, naked, hairy girls who have an affinity for jumping on anything in sight and licking one another’s faces. You may call them kittens, but I call them my nieces, Ashe and Meagh.
